Canadian employers take an increasingly harder line on returning to the office
Briefly

Starting this month, the federal government is requiring employees to be in the office three times a week, up from twice a week previously. This shift reflects a growing trend among employers to prioritize in-person collaboration.
Employers argue that increased in-person attendance is necessary to foster collaboration, help new employees learn on the job, and build a performance culture that aligns with public service values.
The return to office strategy has ignited protests from unions, such as the Public Service Alliance of Canada, which claims remote work enhances productivity and ensures better work-life balance.
The government's stance is firm: non-compliance with the new telework agreements will lead to disciplinary action, indicating a strict approach to enforcing these changes.
